When Ringo heads south to Texas, I'll be heading north to a farm about 50 miles from Kansas City to pick up Maxwell. He was two years old in February.

He's spotty! I love that - and he seems to be quite a hefty fella too. I expect he'll do well for you!

Heck, he is one sexy stud muffin...if i was a ewe........nope can't go there
He sure will produce some handsome lambs for you , love the spots !

I forgot to post the fecal results from the other day. Only one of the 8 ewes needed worming. Two were in the acceptable area and the other 5 had virtually no eggs. Four of those haven't been wormed since Aug of 2017 except for DE and garlic concentrate.

One thing is sure....he is a fine looking replacement....and I wonder how long it'll before he gets animal crackers.....

isn't Maxwell a handsome dude. and like FEM said, hes a chunky tuna. great replacement for ringo. hope he has the same loving nature

 

[Mike CHS]

Maxwell is used to being around people but he hasn't been handled very much and being a big boy means he gets to dictate how soon he gets Animal Crackers (if at all). Ringo was not as tame then as now when we brought him home but he got there pretty fast. I'm firm with them but even Ringo got loving after watching the ewes interact with me but he already had a lot of contact at his previous home.

Wanted to add. Maxwell was used to cover 32 ewes and out of those, there was one single lamb and the rest were twins or triplets.
